Testimony – MINDY
This week, we are being given a glimpse into Mindy’s recovery story. Please come and support her willingness to share with us what the LORD has been and is currently doing in her life. Here is a preview of what she will share on Thursday night:
“I walked through these doors in June of 2010 as a damaged, broken, hurting woman, longing to die, desperate for help, and ready for it.
‘Principle 1: Realize I am NOT God. I admit that I am powerless to control my tendency to do the wrong things and that my life is unmanageable.’
That was me! I was depressed, wounded, weary, out of control, and scared. I was reluctant about this whole recovery thing and was ultra distrustful because I had been hurt so much by the church. But somehow I trusted God with the little faith I had left and took a brave step by surrendering my eating disorder my first night here in small group. I also joined a life-changing step study the following week.”
“He gives strength to the weary and increases the power of the weak.” Isaiah 40:29
Recovery Reminder
Principle 7: Reserve a daily time with God for self-examination, Bible reading, and prayer in order to know God and His will for my life and to gain the power to follow His will.
Step 10: We continued to take personal inventory and when we were wrong, promptly admitted it.
“So, if you think you are standing firm, be careful that you don’t fall!” 1 Corinthians 10:12
